(a) Compute depreciation expense for 2011 and 2012 using (1) the straight–line method, (2) the units–of–activity method, and (3) the double–declining balance method.

Pg. 404–407



Straight–line method– 30,000– 2,000 = 28,000 / 8 = $3,500 annually

2011– $ 3,500–––– worth $26,500

2012– $ 3,500–––– worth $23,000



Units–of–activity method– 28,000/100,000= $0.28 unit

2011– $0.28 x 15,000 = $4,200

2011– $0.28 x 12,000= $3,360



Double–declining balance method

2011– 30,000 x 12.5% (100/8) = $3,750

2012– 26,250 (30,000 – 3,750) x 12.5% = $3,281.35
